"Jadot’s 2006 Chassagne-Montrachet La Romanee (a small lot from purchased grapes) smells of butterscotch, toasted almond, litchi, lanolin, and vanilla. Its exotic and advanced ripeness and hints of new wood are nicely complimented by the wine’s creamy richness. In the finish, one glimpses hints of stone and chalk appropriate to the site. Like its Caillerets sibling, this impressively rich cru bottling may well prove longer-lived than the corresponding village Chassagne (made up in any case of a majority premier cru), but is neither as winsome nor as elegant."
